“Sea Cleaner Kit was good in that it included gloves for picking up rubbish and activities to do with it after.
The hard part about the kit was the planning bit on the school's part for parent helpers - we had to opt for cleaning school grounds.”
“We got the SeaClean kit and used it to support our wider inquiry into protecting our oceans for the future. The kit was complete and comprehensive. Plenty of gloves for the kids and the visual organisers really helped to unpack where the rubbish comes from and where it needs to go. We cleaned up the gardens in a neighbouring apartment complex where many of our students live. They were amazed at what we found! Great to have cotton gloves as we talked about sustainability and reusing materials.”
“My class always LOVES the kits we get. We feel very lucky that these are so generously provided for our learning and development in many areas!
We want to say a BIG BIG thank you!”
“Loved the resource and the positive environmental footprint it has on our planet. The timing was a little off for us as we had planned it for early in the term and had organised parents (which is really difficult in our community). Unfortunately because of the late delivery, we could only muster one parent help so 15 students ended up cleaning the Wairau Valley waterways. They did well though, collecting 739 bits of rubbish.
Thanks so much for the opportunity - as always your resources provide opportunities for our students that they otherwise would not have.

“This kit worked so well with our school wide inquiry, We were stoked to finish off with a massive clean up of our local shopping centre. We had quite a few happy residents who were very impressed with the whole thing!. Thank you for yet again providing such great resources for us! I sent a short video to our Local Nestle representative and it was great to touch base with him too!.”
“What a fantastic resource. My Year 2 class really enjoyed collecting the rubbish and came to the realisation of how rubbish along our coastline affects the animals in our sea. Thanks for the gear.”
“Hi there,
I am very pleased with how this kit supported our learning about the issue of waste in our oceans. The gloves were great &; even the follow up activity of the sea creatures with rubbish in their tummys - great visual. Overall we loved the kit and it felt good to get out there and clean up our road. The kids were so excited and felt very professional with their 'sea cleaner' paper bags and gloves. They begged to keep them so they could continue picking up rubbish on their way to and from school.
A great learning experience and we thank you very much for giving us that opportunity!”
“Kia ora, what a great kit! I plan to use this with my class in the new year. Unfortunately we couldn't use it this year due to unforeseen circumstances. Looking forward to using it in Term 1 2020. :-)”
